After a successful renewal period, APEI welcomes the Aleutians East Borough as a new member this year. The borough stretches from the tip of the Alaska Peninsula to the easternmost Aleutian Islands. We are excited to work with the Aleutians East Borough as our newest member. We are also pleased that after a 1 year hiatus, the Nondalton Water Improvements project has returned as an APEI member.

Do you conduct employee background checks for your organization? Do you think you should? Are you aware of the laws governing when and how you may use background checks for employment decisions? If you are unsure about what you need to do or just need a refresher, join us for a webinar discussing how to appropriately conduct employee background checks.

APEI is excited to announce its new partnership with SafeSchools, the leader in online training for schools. Through this partnership, APEI members have free 24/7 access to over 200 online training courses tailored specifically to schools and school employees. These courses cover a wide array of topics including: bullying prevention, youth suicide, school violence, bloodborne pathogens, slips, trips, and falls, and many more.
